Alien Hominid

The Alien [Merch] Invasion Is HERE!

by

If you were feeling a little too humanoid, a little too intergalactically underdressed for the Invasion, we’re here to give you some hominid hope! With the launch of Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD on November 1st, we added some new items to our merch hideout for you!

Previously only spotted at PAX West 2023, there were rumors it would soon Invade the rest of the world…introducing the ALIEN HORDE BUTTON UP! Never go anywhere alone again! Hundreds of aliens will always be with you.  Look, there are literally dozens of them!

*Not made from real aliens
**Combos beautifully with our Alien Horde Bucket Hat!

If a bucket hat isn’t for you (perhaps you are more of pail hat alien) there is no need for panic. There may be a need for an EMBROIDERED ALIEN HOMINID FLAT BILL CAP though! 

You may have noticed that hominid’s eyes aren’t actually eyes at all…if you enhance you will see that those eyes are actually ALIEN HOMINID PATCHES. You, too, could have aliens for eyes. Or you could use them as actual patches, ya know.

For those who want to rep The Big Chicken, we’ve restocked our beautimous Behemoth Crewnecks and our Chicken Pocket Tees! Maximum tee shirt pocket capacity: 21 mini aliens.

And now for a SPECIAL FEATURE! Here at The Behemoth, we like to give away FREE STUFF to you as much as we can. To continue the celebration of launching both Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD on November 1st, we’re hosting ANOTHER giveaway on Twitter!

Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD are OUT NOW!

by

Do you hear it? In the distance…thousands of alien feet, pitter pattering through the streets…why are so many of them wearing flip flops? The echoes! This can only mean one thing…

Aliens are invading! Both Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD are out now for Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Steam! Single file line please, and have your Mothership registration ready.

Catch our official launch trailer here:

Today, we launched our fifth title, Alien Hominid Invasion, after preparing Motherships for what felt like years…wait, it actually was years?! Time and relative dimension in space can get blurry.

We’re incredibly grateful for all the aliens who waited patiently to board their Motherships while we were laughing, crying, and laugh-crying our way through development. We couldn’t have done it without all of you.

But today is finally the day! Alien Hominid Invasion is here! What does this mean? This means that you and up to three of your gaming buddies can finally join us in the invasion! Drop down from your Mothership and complete objectives to steal the enemy agents’ intel and straight up ruin their days.

Group up with your friends through online co-op, local/couch co-op, or both! Play solo and hang out with the sewer kids and AI-liens instead. Level up your alien and destroy city block after city block as you carve out your unique path to the enemy HQ! Bring down the boss, receive new Mothership orders, unlock new alien mutations, and fulfill your alien destiny.

Feeling nostalgic? Craving a purist Alien Hominid experience? Why not go back to our crazed, unhinged alien roots that started it all with Alien Hominid HD, also out now! 

Feeling like being all bundled up now that it’s November? GOOD, because there’s a bundle for that! Don’t feel like paying full price? GOOD, because this bundle is DISCOUNTED. Did we tell you that this bundle includes lots of aliens? Check out the bundle on Steam here!

As an extra thank you, we also put our other game babies on sale! Catch Castle Crashers Remastered, BattleBlock Theater, and Pit People on sale during our Bawk Bawk, Forget-Me-Not Sale! Score some sweet deals and introduce your friends to games with strange pooping deer, just do it before the sale ends on November 8th!

Let the Invasion commence!

Alien Hominid Invasion Coming in 2023!

by

Yes, you read that correctly! After spending the year diligently prepping for the invasion, the aliens plan to land on Earth in 2023. We are so excited to finally share our fifth game, Alien Hominid Invasion, with the world next year.

As the year comes to an end, our team is working hard to create exciting, memorable bosses that players can look forward to battling throughout the invasion. We can’t wait for you to test your skills!

But what about everything else we’ve added to the game this year? Here are some quick highlights:

Difficulty options – We added Permakeep and Permadeath options, adding another layer of difficulty for players! Also, difficulty level (Friendly, Normal, and INSANE!) can now be changed within each save file and player profile, so that everyone can have the perfect amount of challenge. Adjust this as you wish, so the game is not too hard, not too soft, but juuuuuust right.

New enemies and challenges – Along with checkpoint levels and shiny new (and sometimes spiky) hazards, we added new enemies like the Bounder, Inchworms, and Big Crabs to sprinkle a little variety into your invasion and keep the chaos rolling!

HUD redesign – The HUD has been completely overhauled since the beta, with the danger meter now visible on the bottom of the screen. Player details such as health and mutation level now follow the player and take up less space on the screen, leaving more room for extraterrestrial chaos!

Delightful interactions – The Mothership now knits you back to life after you fail a level. Cute, right? In true mom fashion, she’ll also send some passive-aggressive texts if you don’t upload your gathered intel fast enough. Best not to upset mom!

Aaaand that’s about it for our quick 2022 developer recap. We’re excited to see what 2023 (and the invasion!) has in store. Still searching for more intel? Check out our newly improved AHI website here, and stay tuned for our next dev stream coming early 2023!
